Skirlie (Oatmeal and Onions)




Source of Recipe


the web


List of Ingredients




4 oz. bacon fat or beef suet (may substitute vegetable oil)
2 onions, finely chopped
4 to 6 ounces chicken stock
8 oz. old-fashioned oatmeal, lightly toasted (do not use instant or quick-cooking oats)
Salt and pepper to season


Recipe



Melt the fat or heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the onion and cook until soft and golden.
Add the oatmeal and mix in well. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add the stock and allow it to be absorbed by the oatmeal.
Season well and serve with light creamy mashed potatoes.

(Skirlie may also be used as a stuffing for any kind of game bird or poultry. It is also a very good accompaniment to rich meaty and gamy stews.)

Serves 4.
